The 2.2x Telephoto Conversion Lens Attachment from Vivitar is an attachment for lenses with 58mm filter threads. Its multicoated glass multiplies the focal length 2.2x, making a 100mm lens effectively a 220mm lens. Included with the attachment are a front cap, a rear cap, and a carrying case. Whether you're shooting with a camcorder's built-in zoom or an interchangeable prime lens on a DSLR, as long as the filter thread measures 58mm, this solid, lightweight performer can bring you closer to the action.

Q: 3. what step down adapter, do I need for this for 14-140mm lens?

A: We are going to assume you mean the Panasonic Lumix G Vario 14-140mm f/3.5-5.6 ASPH. POWER O.I.S. Lens B&H # PA141403556M. If that lens, you can screw this attachment lens directly on with no need of an adapter.

A: Yes; as the Sony FDR-AX33 4K Ultra HD Handycam Camcorder has a 52mm front filter thread size, yes, the Vivitar 52mm 2.2x Telephoto Attachment Lens, B&H # VIV52T, would be compatible for use with the Sony FDR-AX33 4K Ultra HD Handycam Camcorder.

Q: 7. will it work with Canon Rebel T3?

A: it doesn't attach to the camera body, it attaches to the lens. If you have a stock 18-35MM lens with your T3, than yeah it'll work just fine. I'm not a big fan of this attachment personally. The corners show on the lens way too quickly and it doesn't add much value. I'd save my money towards a wide-angle lens.

Q: 8. Does it fit the Vivitar DVR508NHD-BLU DVR-508 4X Digital Zoom Video Recorder?

A: No. The following unit does not adapt to threaded filters.

Q: 9. Will the Vivitar 2.2x Telephoto Conversion Lens Attachment for 58mm Threads work reasonably well on a Panasonic FZ35? I am seeing reviews of converter lenses that suggest that they will not work well with long telephoto lenses.

A: To use an-add-on lens on the Panasonic FZ35 you need an adapter, DMW-LA3 Lens Adapter. But it has been discontinued. If you have that part the correct telephoto conversion lens is the DMW-LT55, 55mm.

Q: 10. Are they single element or 2 element?

A: Each close up lens is one element.
